Partnerships this week: @alibaba_cloud and @zan_team part of Ant Digital Technologies. In good company.
Alibaba is partnering with Theta to bring Qwen AI models to Web3-native developers worldwide.
Idle GPUs cost money on both sides of the market. Owners earn nothing from them, and teams pay for compute they never use.
Theta EdgeCloud was built to fix both, and the numbers show why that matters 🧵
$1,999 at launch. $6,000+ today. Reportedly out of production.
The RTX 5090 is the clearest sign yet that owning GPUs is getting harder. Renting them isn't.
RTX 3090s to H200s, by the hour, no contract, on Theta EdgeCloud.

The anti-memorization movement has left millions of students unable to think because every elementary operation consumes working memory.
Solving equations feels smooth when basic arithmetic is automatic. It's like moving puzzle pieces around, and you just need to identify how they fit together.
But without automaticity on basic arithmetic, each puzzle piece is a heavy weight. You struggle to move them at all, much less figure out where they're supposed to go.
It’s the same all the way up the ladder of math: from arithmetic, to algebra, to calculus, to all sorts of university-level math and beyond.
People have heard about the phonics vs triple-queuing fiasco but there is a similar issue in math where ed school ideologues have stigmatized the normal and necessary work of drilling novice students in the fundamentals.

Yesterday I was helping my younger cousin with her fractions homework: turning mixed numbers into improper fractions and vice versa and then adding/subtracting them
Her addition, subtraction, and multiplication isn't automatic - she had to stop and think about each and every calculation which made us pause so much
I told her mom that she needs to be practicing her math facts until they are fluent because as she progresses into more complicated math, she is going to struggle immensely
I recommended https://t.co/66ZHTREKt0 (@sharemath is the math wizard)
Remembering facts is fundamental to learning and its crazy we even have this problem!
Such pure nonsense! Tamil Nadu’s most popular chain is the Saravana Bhavan chain, which serves only vegetarian food. It is highly and equally preferred by non-vegetarians and orthodox vegetarians. It was founded and is run by a family belonging to the meat-eating Nadar community.
Vegetarianism and non-vegetarianism mark distinctions in eating choices, and that’s it. Many people shift from being meat-eaters to non-meat-eaters for various reasons unrelated to religion, caste, or community.
It has become fashionable to see everything in India through the prism of caste, community, and religion.
What if students could explore their future before choosing it?

As the outpouring of #ParandurAirport cancellation is still going on SM, am sitting in Coimbatore airport waiting to board flight to Bengaluru.
First time flying out from here & the pitiable condition of this airport in such an important industrial town of TN is to been seen & experienced to be believed.
TN definitely deserves better airports than this shit.
I’ve almost seen every airport in India & haven’t come across such deplorable facilities in any airport as I see in Coimbatore.
Hope better sense prevails else the state is doomed..
An absolutely phenomenal read about the causes of the current epidemic of female personality disorders, and how to prevent your daughters from being infected.
Massachusetts ranks dead last in affordability, and Beacon Hill’s answer is to worry about how many miles you drive so they can tax you for it.
That doesn’t solve the affordability crisis. It punishes working people.
Enough is enough. Let’s end the insanity this November.

We ran an experiment at Theta EdgeCloud to test a more efficient way to serve LLMs in production.
Long prompts can slow down everyone sharing the same GPUs. We tested an architecture designed to keep latency/throughput stable as prompt length and traffic increases. 🧵
@Yuchenj_UW Theta EdgeCloud offers on-demand, distributed H100s & H200s -- but also more affordable high-performance RTX 5090/4090 for inference, fine-tuning, & tasks like diffusion.

BlackRock's CEO thinks compute will become a tradable asset. CME Group has just announced the first contracts.
We've written about why this is happening, and why pricing the shortage is not the same as solving it.

On our farm in Odisha, tons of premium quality mangoes are rotting and turning to dust every season.
We grow world class varieties, but middlemen snatch them at just ₹10-15/kg.
No real profit, only huge losses.
Exports and headlines sound great in social media , yet most farmers like us have no storage, no direct markets, and no proper ecosystem.
Over tonnes produced yearly wasted potential.
Building a strong sustainable agriculture system is crucial for our growth better farmer incomes, stronger rural economy, less migration and real prosperity for Odisha’s villages.
We need collection centres, cold storage, fair pricing and direct buyers now.
Let’s turn our mango wealth into actual farmer growth instead of social media shouting, Odisha needs its true growth.

Prop 2½ has protected MA taxpayers for 45+ years.
It’s predictable. It works. It protects homeowners from major, automatic property tax hikes.
Study author @JaredWalczak breaks down our latest study, shows why critics are wrong & what homeowners stand to lose if it’s repealed.
🚨 A new scam is taking place in America that allows scammers to get your phone number to get past 2-Factor Authentication
Scammers can then get access to your social media accounts, bank accounts and more
AT&T Employee “I work at AT&T and over the last couple days, I've witnessed multiple malicious port-outs, which means that a scammer has tricked your cell phone carrier into allowing them to port your number over into a device that they control, which in turn lets them do the two-factor authentication
Allowing them into your bank account, your email, your social media. A way to prevent this from happening, and this isn't just for AT&T, this is for any cell phone carrier that you have. Most of them have a port-out protection that you should turn on because this has been happening quite a bit lately. So just letting you know”
Again this could happen on any cell phone carrier you have.
I researched and found port-out protection is a free feature offered by major U.S. carriers, including T-Mobile, Metro, and others
Make sure you do this
🚀 Big models, now available on demand on @Theta_Network EdgeCloud!
We’ve launched MiniMax-M2.5 (230B) and gpt-oss-120b on Theta EdgeCloud as on-demand APIs. This give developers instant access to massive frontier LLMs without managing infrastructure. These aren’t small LLMs — they’re hundreds of billions of parameters, built for serious reasoning, coding, and agentic workloads.
Check them out today: https://t.co/Sn2gEia2KL
